All Tall bearded Iris: the pink...Peach Jam. The purple...a misnamed variety, the two tone blue given to me by my friend along the road, Unknown name, possibly "Best Bet"

Bathgate, Thank you for October Sky as a suggested name. Looked that up in the Iris data base. The falls of mine are more purple than blue, no white flash. It does have a scent but I wouldn't call it Spicy. A pic to follow.
Gg, the pink is the one that is supposed to have purple streaks on the petals, didn't last year. So far no streaking on the 3 flowers that have opened.

I think the 2 tone blue one is 'October Sky' It looks just like mine which is about to open. Good selection - it's a rebloomer!
